Was Pietro his first name or last name? What region, province or town was he from? Was he married if so do you know his wifes full name (maiden) and did they have children? Were they married in Italy or US were the kids born in Italy or US? What year did your grandfather come to the US?

The more detail you can give the easier it is for people on the forum to help you.

Hi, his name was Pietro Antonio Pittaccio, and his mother's name was Mary. She remarried again, and her husband was my grand-father's step-father. They had other children also. I think he still has some family over there, I just don;t know where. He came over to Camden, New Jersey, where he met my granmother. Her name was Sadie, she was from there. I think they lived there for awile because that is where my father was born. His name is Peter too. They also have two other sons, Guido and Richard. They have a daughter, Theresa also. My grandparent's are deceased now but I am planning to visit Italy some day and hopefully want to meet my grandfather's family, if they are still around. If you can help that will be great. Thank you guys, Gina I live in Wilmington, Delaware..

Your grandmother was Sadie, do you know her maiden name? Was she born in Italy or Camden, NJ?
Your grandparents had 4 children named Pietro (Peter), Guido, Richard and Teresa (Theresa)? Were all the children born in Camden?
Pietro Antonio Pittaccio's mothers name was Mary (Maria), married twice, first marriage to Pietro's father second marriage to Pietro's stepfather?
Mary (Maria) never came to the USA?
Do you or your dad remember Pietro talking about the region or town he was from?
What year did Pietro come to USA?

During the mass emigration from Italy during the century between 1876 to 1976, the U.S. was the largest single recipient of Italian immigrants in the world.
